Some ramblings...

I've been looking into the keyword-tag mapping functionality and how
things would look like in StoreSchemaDefinition and the fetching code.
Initially, I was considering adding three more tables (imap_keywords,
ui_tags and keyword_tag_map), so that any keyword could be mapped to any
tag, consistently. However, ensuring the mappings were consistent in the
DB would require changing the messages.flags column as well, so I put
that aside.

The next idea would be a single keyword_and_tag table, (keyword TEXT
UNIQUE, tag TEXT), later possibly with a 'color' field too. In this
case, I'd add the USER_ keywords in lowercase as they came up during
sync, and eventually the user could edit the mappings in a new activity.

Regardless of the design, messages.flags being a multivalued field makes
it a bit cumbersome to simply extend the query and have the tags
magically appear, so I'd probably have to query keyword_and_tag. So what
am I looking for, something inside EmailProvider?

And, finally, another approach that occurred to me was adding the tags
to LocalMessage directly, probably in
LocalMessage.populateFromGetMessageCursor. In this case, I think I need
to create some kind of TagStore similar to LocalStore so I can
discover the tags as the keywords appear.

If anyone can explain the current architecture and/or comment on the
approaches above, I'd be happy to read.

 If you're already inside the Inbox, you can click the  K-9 icon in
 the upper left corner to list the folders. Isn't that what you need?
 
 
 Mine is just the  with the doggie picture. Doesn't actually say K-9.
 
That's the one. Drawing the dog in ascii would be difficult :)
